joining exhaust
Question for all you who have gone there + done that....
got the manifold fitted, obtained the 5" diameter silencer from CBS, which has no fittings on it.
This leaves me with 2 questions for the forum:-
How do I secure the silencer to the car?
and
How do I connect the 2" O/D manifold outlet to the 2" I/D silencer?
There is a slight upward angle on the manifold of about 5 degrees and the connecting link would also have to turn the corner of the bodywork (side
panel mid-way angle).
Are the flexible connectors any good or do they restrict flow?
(sorry, that is 3 questions)!!
Awaiting lots of brilliant easy - fit suggestions....
Thanks in advance, Steve.

I can swage a stainless connector for you and incorporate any bend angle you want, you can then clamp onto each component using micalor clamps or
similar - I would just need to know both pipes OD, alternaively send me the silencer and I will tig any connection you want onto it
Give me a bell on 01449 736633 if that works for you
regards
Andy
